Review: Exceeded my expectations, very functional and looks good too! - For months I've had 1u router, smart switch and power strip sitting on my desk and they were always in the way, taking up more room than needed. When I found this desktop rack I figured I'd try it, but based on the price I wasn't expecting it to be extremely stable and that was fine for my use case. The package arrived on time and was packaged well enough to avoid shipping damages for sure. When I started unboxing, the first thing I noticed was the quality of the parts were heavier than I was expecting. I was able to put this together quickly, without instructions, taking approximately 10-15 minutes, and, I had never put together a rack before. Because the rack is so stable, I decided to order the shelf for the top. Not only is the shelf handy and made of the same quality, it hides all the wires making the rack aesthetically pleasing because. Now I have far more room on my desk, I can manage the network hardware without worrying about tangeled wires and it looks pro sitting on my desk :) Yes, I would spend the money and buy this rack (and they're shelf as well.)
Review: Best desktop rack I have used for the money - Bought this for some Ubiquiti gear at my house. Didn't want to "borrow" any full sized rack gear from work. I just needed a couple spaces for router and switch, and I didn't want to spend more on the rack than the gear in it. This little guy is rock-sturdy and sits flat. Those two things are hard to come by in affordable items like this. I have owned a few different ones. The only downside, and I think a minor one, is that the instructions are not completely clear on how it fits together. The kicker there is that it could fit together in a few different ways. Once you analyze it a bit, it makes sense to fit together only one way. Just took a couple minutes of staring at it. For the money, buy it. You won't get better for the price.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Which version of rackstuds will fit this? Red or purple? thanks**
A: Rack Studs have not been tested with the RK4OD. Brandon, StarTech.com Support

**Q: Will this hold an avalon 737, a furman, and another small unit?**
A: Yes it should you should put the Avalon at the bottom for weight distribution.

**Q: Can I mount 3 behringer synths on this? (Neutron, modeld, krave)**
A: The Neutron and Model D seem to be able to be rack mounted using the optional rack ears. It doesn't look like the Krave can be mounted this way (the width is a good deal less than 19"). I could be wrong . . . check with your vendor.

**Q: How tall and deep is the unit? I'd like to transport it in a case.**
A: It is 9in tall and 11 1/2in deep

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fits 17" deep Catalyst, if you use slot 2 or higher
*by M***E on April 7, 2025*

C'mon, y'all. This isn't Ikea furniture, here. There are only 5 pieces and the exact amount of screws you need. Had this together without the instructions in 5 minutes. Everything only fits one way. And, because I had wondered and no photos were showing this, here is a side view of a Cisco C3750G-48PS-S, which is 17 inches deep, mounted in slot 2. So, if you want to mount deep things, stick to slots 2, 3, and 4. I am only populating 2 and 4 for better air flow. This will work perfectly for my needs, sitting on top of 5-foot wire rack shelving in my data closet. Seems like no dnager to tip backwards, due to the angle. Can't beat the price. Great table-top rack.
